Desalination processes turn reduce salt levels in water. Currently they are very expensive, and are not cost effective when compared to using groundwater or fresh water from rivers.
However, what if, by 2012, we saw large scale desalination become cost effective? Let's say an American/European/Japanese company figured out a way to make it so. Do you think that this could lead to man-made rivers in the water stressed areas of Africa?
